Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Mitigation

(This comic consists of gens 1-4 and my own Fakemon generation. And no, I will not make exceptions.)
Pokemon have begun to notice the change in those captured by Humans and therefore try to resist any way they can. Some are captured, and then forced to go against their own kind and family. Even when their trainer is killed, the Pokeball must be destroyed with the pokemon outside in order for them to even be able to revert back to their wild state.
Small resistances are built sparsely across the world, and some attacks have been made, but not many. However, in recent years, the pokemon have fought back, with greater force; it's enough a disturbance to discourage the new trainers for the next ten years.
It is here, we begin our tale.
Updates are on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays when able.

So You Don't Have a Heart Attack

One of you guys brought it to my attention that Mitigation's profile had made he recently uploaded pages vanish.
Like, poof! Gone.

Fortunately, they were never gone.

I think the Admin changed the coding to where the "latest updates" area shows the last updates according to the Archive, rather than the actual latest updates.
I have moved the Extras section for the time being to make sure you all know I'm still here. If I find a way to change it, or the coding goes back to normal, I'll move it back (I like the extras after reading) If not, then I'll survive somehow.

Side note: Is it too much trouble to suggest you bookmark the last read page?
I dunno. I always do that. I swear there's a hundred bookmarked comics that I still haven't touched after.. what, a year and a half? But at least it helps me keep track of them all.

Anyway, back on topic. Comic's not vanished, coding got weird, updates will continue as normal for a while yet.

Edited Pages

(Totally forgot to do this yesterday, went straight to page work instead)

Here is a list of pages that i painstakingly went through a couple weeks ago after the sickness left. Please enjoy, (and a bit later today i'll add a before and after pic for one of them)
Followed by the page number is a description of the edit made, because some are less obvious than others, and not every edited page says exactly what i did. So, without further adieu:

-Chapter One edits-
01-01... Pixels to Greyscale
01-11... Blurred text
01-12... <Wing Attack> not 'quick attack'
01-19... Floor shadow
01-42&43... Bubble tone/Blurred text
01-45+46... Spelling
(Please note, that because a large majority of this chapter had no real backgrounds, i did not see the need to drive myself insane by adding a nice detailed background to each panel and page. Perhaps much later in the future, but not now.)

Happy (belated) New Year!

I did this for my DA, although admittedly I did it a few weeks ago, so I felt I should do it here :) so Happy New Year, all!

Since I don't have any fun white-board material up on my closet doors yet, I think I'll post them up here for the time being, and don't worry, it'll stay.
so let's begin:

Work on Original's timeline and create a satisfying first draft
- I've had the idea in my head since freshman year, and every version I've created sucks in one form or another. I need to start over, from the beginning, and perhaps redesign my main characters.
- If I can complete a decent enough draft/timeline, I might be able to start actually writing by next year.

Finish writing Mitigation
- I know I've been writing it for a couple years now, but just because I finished writing the first half doesn't mean it's finished.
- I aim to have finished thumbing up to chapter ten, if not further, by the end of this year.
- Come up with an ending that is good. satisfying. reasonable. and draws everything up nicely.
- also, beat Darkrai in Explorers, so I know how to do it... and whatever the final final boss is in Red Rescue.

TRY TO GET BACK INTO DRAGONQUEST
- it's maddening that I want to play it, and then start up and get bored because I can't go any further without grinding for HOURS AND HOURS AND HOURS
- Finish drawing through Chapter 1 (estimated 150+ pages total)
- Draw more art for it
- Watch let's plays to get inspiration
- if nothing else, novelize it. (then pray it doesn't come to that)

Post more LP's
- have tons of prerecorded footage in my folders, it's taking up way too much space.
- after editing a good portion of them, try to post REGULARLY
- Play games while on break, just so I'm doing something inbetween chapters instead of "Saving" Skyrim.... on that note
- Save Skyrim from Maven Blackbriar.

Work on Games
- Have a few ideas, write them down, make a plot for them
- don't sweat the fighting mechanic, that'll come later
- check copyrighting privileges and loopholes for that one.
- Make a short horror game.
- Come up with a title for my main game.

Those are just a few of my overall resolutions. I do have several more. I don't wan't to get you guys excited but another thing I need to make a draft for is an actual Book I plan on writing that will, in time with assistance from my people (they know people), MAY end up becoming a feature-length animated film (2-d of course, cause EF those modeling & Animation programs!)
So, yeah, lots to think about and do this year. You guys have any of your own resolutions you feel like sharing? or maybe a report card for how you did last year ^^
I admit, I didn't make any last year, that's probably why I did such a poor job of keeping everything in order ^^U but this year, I am BACK on track!

Ugh me =.=

Well...... I really did not want this to happen...

With Finals starting just this week and things picking up around work, I have had almost no time to do anything I WANTED to do, which was draw. I've also been working on a Video Game idea and minecraft stuff... not really an excuse, but good to know i was doing something creative, right?

So I have literally nothing for you guys. Hopefully after Christmas I will, since I'm being forced to take those days off (literally, my boss is threatening to ban me from the site for two days to make sure I don't work). Fortunately, though, I have sketches for the first 20 some-odd pages for chapter two and sketches for about 18 other fakemon to add to the pokedex. So as a reward for being so patient and not killing me over this delay, I'll be doing a mass update the Sunday after Christmas Break! Seriously, i will have maybe 12 things for you at most, and then we'll hopefully be back to regular updates. and also hopefully by then, DragonQuest will be back up again as well.

Yay? maybe?

I'll have to get some sort of schedule figured out between Work, School, My Game and here along with continuing my Let's Play videos on youtube very soon as well.

Tablet's Not Working NOOOOO!!!!

I don't know why, but my tablet's going nuts. it may take me a while to fix it. I've got the rest of the month on pre-updates and a few pages after that, but not much else.
I'm sorry guys. But I'm going to try and get it fixed, if it's a simple uninstall-reinstall issue or there's something wrong with the pen again, or even the tablet itself(pray the case may not be) heck, for all I know, it could be the cord!

I'm going to work on fixing it, all posts for EVERYTHING will be delayed. I deeply apologize for the inconvenience. look forward to future updates in April, assuming I fix my dear tablet before the pre-updated pages run out.

Who Wants to Make a Fakemon?

I need help. fakemon, teams, inspiration, you name it.
I've only shown you a few fakemon, thus far, but you're welcome to make your own. If they pass inspection, then they'll be drawn in the mitigation style and added to the pokedex :3 anyone up for the challenge

-Fakemon submission rules-
-Must look/sound/ BE a Pokemon, in due respect
-Fairy type does not exist
-No fire/grass type or fire/bug type or anything similar of the nature
- must follow the same "laws" that Pokemon from gen 1-4 follow
-send to me via email or pm ^^
- oh yeah, and the name has to make sense, too
-Team submission rules-
-Cannot have any LESS than two members
-Cannot have any more than 6 members(must provide explanation if you wish to exceed this limit)
-Gen 5 and up, (meaning froakie, fenniken, sylveon, oshowat, and so on) does NOT exist.
-I will do cameos, should you submit your honest-to-goodness team
-can have fakemon in them
-at least one previously existing Pokemon
-I would prefer no shineys(max number of shineys I wall allow for the series is 20, and most are already in place)
-again, send via email or pm

This'll go on until chapter one is over, which'll be a while ^^ but I look forward to your submissions

Pokedex alert!!

RAWR! hey guys! I'm getting more of the Pokedex done, but I'm having some issues naming the Pokemon. and since most of these guys won't appear in the comic anyway, I can just update them sequentially for those that actually DO appear in the comic! that makes it easier for me, considering I'm also creating sprites for them as well.

also, the prologue will be in color!!! WOO!!! :D who doesn't like colored comics, huh? me ಠ_ಠ
with all the time it takes to color the whole page, everything after the prologue will be greyscale unless I feel like coloring it or someone want's me to do a color page. but chapter markers'll always be in color.
